Claire attended her first gator football game a couple weekends ago with Jason. She stayed the whole game and had a great time. 

Bedtime stories with daddy. 

Nora got to play on the playground for the first time. She usually spends the whole time in a swing, but now that she can walk, she got to explore the equipment. She loved it!!

She also got to ride in the carts with steering wheels for the first time too. Claire showed her how to do it right. 

Nora tasting sidewalk chalk. 

Soccer has started up again, and claire gets to play this year. She insists on wearing a skirt and dress shoes. It's pretty funny. 

She also likes the giant soccer balls.

Second week of soccer. They had just mowed and so Nora had grass all over her.

We took a quick trip through Missouri on our way to Washington state for my cousins wedding. Elise had to stay home due to her oxygen need, so it was just me and the two little ones. 

We celebrated grandma Eleanor's birthday. 

Claire lost in a forest of Christmas trees at hobby lobby. 

Claire got her nails done for the wedding. She had trouble choosing which color she wanted. 

Once in Washington we celebrated Nora's birthday. It was so much fun.
